We built AIVA so salon owners can finally rest.

Five years ago, most nail salons still ran on a notepad next to the phone. We were sure there had to be a better way.

Bukkii started back in 2021 as one of the very first online booking platforms built specifically for the nail industry. It was a hard sell at the time — most owners had never used online booking. They were used to the phone and the walk-in, and worried a calendar would only get in the way of the customer already standing at their door.

There was a second pain we couldn't ignore: hardly any salon had a website, and the few that did were stuck. Changing something as small as opening hours or a single menu price meant emailing whoever built the site — and waiting a day or two for that one edit to finally go live.

So we built Bukkii to put owners back in control. App and website, online booking, appointment management, check-in, and an AI Receptionist — all in one app you run yourself. Update anything about your salon the moment you want to, in seconds, no developer required.

Then we kept going. Today Bukkii replies to your Google reviews automatically and showcases your best 5-star reviews right on your website, and TapMeGo lets your techs keep 100% of their tips — with zero transaction fees.

And in 2025 we shipped AIVA, the world's first AI Receptionist trained for salons. She now handles 1.4 million calls and 23,000 appointments for 1,000+ salons across the US — so you can take care of the customer in your chair, and let Bukkii handle the rest.
